Support of Elements

Another but very important aspect is the translation of requirements into different base standards. Each data exchange standard uses different technical terms to express the same:

Requirement in natural language in FHIR in CDA in v2.x in v2+
populate this element with exactly the specified information, no null values, nothing else mustSupport=true, extensions not allowed, minCard = 1 "M" "R" implement=true, minCard = 1
populate this element with exactly the specified information, null values allowed but nothing else mustSupport=true, DAR allowed, minCard = 1 "R" "R" implement=true, minCard = 1
support this element with exactly the specified information and populate if you can, no null values mustSupport=true, extensions not allowed, minCard = 0 "M" "RE"  
the developer can decide to support this element mustSupprt = empty "O" "O"  
the element is forbidden mustSupprt = false, maxCard = 0 "X" "X" implement = false, maxCard = 0
       

At this point attention should be guided to the obligation discussion.
